Zachary Levi as Harold drawing a circle with his purple crayon.
This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Zachary Levi's list of flops is getting long but one movie that barely a soul saw is now headed to Netflix. Finally, all you Levi stans can stream it. Harold and the Purple Crayon made roughly $30 million in total in the box office. The film itself cost more than that to make.
✕ Remove Ads Levi starred as Harold opposite Tanya Reynolds as Porcupine and Lil Rel Howery as Moose. The rest of the cast included Zooey Deschanel, Jemaine Clement, and Alfred Molina as Johnson himself. Or really as Harold's father since he was the one that created Harold. For the most part, Harold and the Purple Crayon seemed like a fine kid's movie but it has a reputation online for being bad and cheesy. The Carlos Saldanha film has a 26% on Rotten Tomatoes from critics.
Levi previously starred in Shazam! and Shazam! Fury of the Gods. In that movie, he starred as Shazam aka adult Billy Batson who gains super powers when his younger self says the magic word:"Shazam." To be fair, as Harold, Levi is playing a man named Harold who grew up in an imaginary world where his magical purple crayon can draw him whatever he wants. So he's at least an adult. Just an adult whose friends are a moose and a porcupine.
✕ Remove Ads Not The Kids Book Anyone Wanted to See Come to Life There are plenty of kids books that come to life. We've seen multiple versions of Curious George and even The Cat in the Hat got a live-action rendition. Harold and his magic purple crayon was just never high on the list of kid's books we needed to see come to life.
